Pritee Parwekar_ANITS
9. What is Granularity (30sec)

• when a nonlocal memory word is referenced,


a chunk of memory containing the word is
fetched from its current location and put on
the machine making the reference. An
important design issue is how big should the
chunk be? A word, block, page, or segment
(multiple pages).

Munin is a DSM system that is fundamentally


based on software objects, but which can
place each object on a separate page so the
hardware MMU can be used for detecting
accesses to shard objects.
